A king was once in need of a faithful servant. He gave notice that he wanted a man to do a day’s work, and two men came and asked to be admitted. He engaged them, and set them to fill a basket with water from a well, saying he would come in the evening again. After filling one or two buckets (水桶), one man said. “Why do we do it? You see, it is no use putting the water into the basket, and it runs out at once.” The other man answered, “It is none of our business. We promised to do it, and we are to get paid for it.” The first speaker thought it foolish and then went away. The other man continued his work. Towards evening, he had nearly emptied the well. Looking into the basket, he saw something shining. It was a ring of great value, which his bucket had brought from the muddy bottom of the well. “Now I come to understand the use of pouring the water into a basket.” he said to himself. At this moment the king came up. Seeing the ring, he knew the man had been doing exactly as he had ordered, although the work had seemed useless. The king knew he had found a servant he could trust at last. He told the man to keep the ring for himself, saying, “You have been faithful in a little thing: now I see I can trust you in great things. It is your attitude that makes the difference. From now on you shall be the head of my servants.” 【1】The king asked the two men to pour the water into the basket in order to ________.

When I was a senior student, I couldn’t understand my science teacher’s instructions, which upset me a lot. So when it comes to home-schooling our daughters, my husband volunteered to teach them science. But at that time he was too busy. I had to teach them instead. One morning, I noticed the sky was a beautiful blue, and the air was filled with the sweet smell of flowers, I decided the lessons would be taught outside. I got the girls ready. We headed up into the forest, setting ourselves by a pond. My elder daughter Saoirse began catching frogs, while my younger daughter Ula looked at me, waiting to be instructed. I handed her a drawing board and the colored pencils. “We wait and see if something comes along. In the meantime, just draw what’s around you.” I told her. Just then a bird flew across the water, and settled in front of a fallen tree. I quickly told Ula, worried that she’d not seen the creature. But she had, and she began drawing it. An hour later, she finished her picture and I found she drew the bird on her paper with amazing accuracy (准确性). But there was one other interesting fact about this drawing: she also drew me, sitting beside her. Staring at this child’s drawing of us watching a bird, I realized how I’d lived for 40 years, gathered 10 years of higher education, and never understood the basis of science before this moment. It is a sense of wonder: it isn’t about accurately reciting words from textbooks. It is first about stepping outside and admiring the world around us. From that day on, it was I not my husband that acted as the science teacher. 【1】What was the author’s attitude toward science when she was in school? A.She didn’t care about it. B.She longed to learn it. C.She worked bard at it. D.She found it difficult. 【2】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A.The tree. B.The pond. C.The frog. D.The bird. 【3】Which of the following can best describe Ula? A.Wise and stubborn. B.Patient and careful. C.Friendly and outgoing. D.Selfless and hard-working. 【4】In the author’s opinion, what is the basis of science? A.Teacher’s instruction. B.Higher education. C.Appreciating the world around. D.Getting knowledge from textbooks. 【5】What is the best title for the text? A.An amazing painting B.A trip to the forest C.A lesson on science D.A sense of accuracy |

If you like dangerous and exciting sports, maybe skydiving (跳伞) is for you. First skydivers jump from an airplane. 【1】 Sometimes, skydivers do gymnastics in the air—for example, they might hold their knees close to their bodies and turn upside down. Finally, skydivers pull a cord (绳索) and a parachute (降落伞) opens. 【2】 Skydivers usually wear hard helmets to protect their heads. Sometimes, skydivers are on a team in a competition such as the Olympics. The team works together and does movements in the air. 【3】 The team with the most points wins. It’s difficult to see what skydivers do when you’re standing on the ground. Often, people fly in airplanes to make a tape of the skydivers. 【4】 If skydiving doesn’t sound fun to you, there are plenty of other sports. 【5】 Surfers stand out in the middle of the ocean on a long, flat board.
